Vice President, Shareholder

Bruce has managed our Corsicana office since 2001. He earned a BBA and MBA from the University of Texas at Austin. He also holds the Certified Financial Planner® certification. 

His professional career includes being: a corporate lending officer in the First National Bank of Chicago’s Houston office; the vice president of corporate development with a Midland-based publicly held independent oil and gas firm; the founder and co-owner of a small independent oil and gas firm, and the president of a family-owned broker-dealer in Corsicana. He holds a variety of licenses including securities principal, securities representative, options principal, municipal principal, financial operations principal, and life insurance agent.

The best long-term investment decision Bruce made was to ask Ellen Atwood to marry him in 1972. He and Ellen have two adult children and three “almost perfect” grandchildren. When he is not designing portfolios or meeting with clients, Bruce is often found at the Corsicana Country Club working on his golf game.
